Very interesting book.... I'm not very interested in dragons or griffins, so I didn't read the parts specifically devoted to them. However, the history at the beginning... wow!! What a comprehensive study! The author explains the role of "Wonder Beasts" in history, mythology, popular culture, and even royalty, citing specific as well as general examples. Reading the sections on the unicorn and the phoenix, I was very interested to learn about all the variations throughout history, all the different names for the creatures and the differences in discription from culture to culture. VERY interesting book! (
